this is hardly the worst of it. didn't someone post to this list
recently about attempting to tell people at ebay that they were
auctioning off certain items illegally, and they couldn't care less?
worse still, i heard a story on npr recently about ebay trying to
strongarm smaller internet auction companies into not auctioning items
that they were also auctioning off.
ebay are straight-up crooks. think about that the next time you buy
anything from / auction anything through them.
